That was a sick show indeed.. probably woulda been like 8 or 9 on my list .. might have been rated higher if I didn\'t have to take such a bad **** through the 1st set. Also it was the first time I heard Tricky Ways and I was like WTF is this, esp right after a ser Rufus ???

9 entries all week? I think it\'s great the entries that are in are so different.

Well if interest stays this low I\'ll close the voting after the weekend instead of leaving it open for 2 weeks.

HONORABLE MENTION: March 2nd, 2006 - Stone Church; Newmarket, NH

NOTES: This is the only show with the original Breakfast lineup that I would even consider for this list.  It was the last show before they left for their national tour in March.  The vibe was amazing and this show contains the debut of Late And The Great > Overexposure.  Though Late and the Great had been played a few years before......

The vibe was amazing ..... -ly drunk!
Sick show but I thought the StonedChurch in June edged it out.

NUMERO UNO: December 30th, 2006 - Nectar\'s; Burlington, VT

I: Space City Affair > Tribal Funk Affliction, May Fly Disarray, Garcian Fishbowl* >
Phaddy Boom Baddy > Attraction To Shade Ditty > Phaddy Boom Baddy > Garcian Fishbowl, Intension >
Vocoder jam > What The Funk

II: Hard Luck Harry > Earache My Eye, See The Light > Gypsy Queen**, Gypsy Girl > Drunk Monk Bar,
jam > Inner Glimpse > Drum Solo/Guitar Solo>Jam^

* with \'Fresh Cut\' tease.
**ending only
^ Adrian and Tim trading solos, then tim started the guitar solo to Don\'t Fear The Reaper, which turned into a Thunderstruck jam

NOTES: This was by far the best Breakfast show I have seen to date.  The music was tight, fresh, and tasty.  The lights were on point all night.  This show displays the amazing potential that this band has.  Great and orginal jamming.  Amazing harmonizations.  Genius Lightshow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NUMBER 2: December 9th, 2006 - The Saint; Asbury Park, NJ

I: jam > Gravity, Heather > Tricky Ways, Buquebus > Rust > Puppetry, Son Of Simpleton

II: jam > No Regret, Gladys Pimp And Kangaroos With Me* > Intension, The Chase**, Psygn^

E: Welcome To This World

* with \'Bathtub Gin\' (Phish) tease.
** with \'Layla\' (Derek & The Dominos) tease.
^ with \'Tomorrow Never Knows\' & \'Within Without You\' (The Beatles) tease.

NOTES: This was a special show for me.  The band ripped it up and the vibe in the room was pure bliss.  Queeb and Simpleton in the first set.  Gladys Pimp, Intension, and Psygn in the second set....need I say more?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NUMBER 3: October 12th, 2006 - Goodfoot Lounge; Portland, OR

I: jam > Sleeping Beauty > jam > Love Lake, jam > Buquebus* > Psygn, jam > Dig** > See The Light^ >

** with \'You Hit The Nail On The Head\' and \'If You Don\'t Like The Effects, Don\'t Produce The Cause\' (Funkadelic) teases.
^ with \'Mike\'s Song\' (Phish) tease.

NOTES: This show started as a doozie but people ended up showing up and staying while getting down all night.  Chadwick used a drum mic for adrians vocals and they were amazing all night especially on VT Song.  Also, this show contains the best version of Eschers I have ever heard the band play.  Love Lake and Taboo come take my lead as hottest breakfast songs going.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NUMBER 4: July 19th, 2006 - 10,000 Lakes Festival; Detroit Lakes, MN

I: Space City Affair > Psygn > Attraction To Shade Ditty > Inner Glimpse, Honey Butter > Buquebus,
Peaches En Regalia > Intension, Great Big Fiery Ball In The Sky > Tricky Ways, Rufus >
Taboo Or Not Taboot > Drum Solo

NOTES: Headlining the first night of this amazing festival (On Field stage which was the main stage that day since the main stage was dark for the first day).  Oh and 4000 people jamming with the band all set.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

NUMBER 5: August 31st, 2006 - Electric Company; Utica, NY

I: Space City Affair > Wake Up In A Coma, The Chase, Rust, jam > Episode 1 (Happy), Future Peek >
LDZ > Dig > Honey Butter, Funky Bill\'s Circus Clich?

II: Beef Barley, Intension, Love Lake > What The Funk, Rufus > Puppetry

III: Drum Solo > Space City Affair > Psygn > No Regret, Gladys Pimp And Kangaroos With Me >
Tricky Ways, Question, Episode 3 (Awakening)

NOTES: The first set had an amazing flow to it.  The second set came to birth backstage aftrer much much pain and effort by the band to try and form a set.  The Jam between Rufus > Puppetry was the best improv jam I have heard from the Breakfast.  It almost sounded like a song on its own.  Too bad it wasnt taped. And Psygn, Gladys, Question, Ep 3 in the 3rd set...are you ser?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

HONORABLE MENTION: March 2nd, 2006 - Stone Church; Newmarket, NH

I only feel "qualified" to rate shows that I attended, since, as we all know, the notes played ain\'t everything.  Being that I only made it to five shows (my lowest for a FULL year as a Breakfast fan ever), it makes it a little easier in that I don\'t need to leave anything else.  Anyway:

#1: 10/27/2006 - Fonghoulish Freakout VIII, Toad\'s Place
#2: 07/07/2006 - Jordan\'s Last Show, Beardslee Castle
#3: 06/17/2006 - 1000th Show, Toad\'s Place
#4: 01/21/2006 - Daniel St.
#5: 07/26/2006 - Rocks Off Boat Cruise

I\'m sure my list will be radically different from the lists of those who hit up 15 or 20 shows, but I still feel like I caught some great ones.

thats awesome they played a bday setlist for him! this got me thinking...through listening to the many shows streaming from this site i noticed the band used to do can food drives occasionally in the past. they would give out cds and such for the people who brought the most cans in. i always thought that was a cool idea and was curious if they planned on doing that at any of the upcoming shows. maybe they could include a \'setlist\' charity auction too and have the highest bidder choose a set for that show (beforehand obviously) and maybe donate the money to a charity or something. just thinking aloud here not trying to step on anyones toes or anything. id be more than happy to help out with a canned food drive at the upcoming syracuse shows.

SO it was a turbulent year in Breakfast land but the band still rocked the land from coast to coast, as a quartet or trio.
Now that the year is over and we look back on all the shows played in 2006, time to rank them by general consensus.

We can decide on 2 catagories(quartet/trio) if enough people feel it is needed.

Standard ranking rules apply. Pick the top 5 shows.

Your #1 gets 5 points, your #2 gets 4 points, your #3 gets 3 points, #4 gets 2 points, #5 gets one point.
Shows that you list can either be shows that you attended or shows that you listened to (via webcast, download, b+p, archive, whatever).

If you choose to just list 5 in no particular order they will all recieve 3 points.

I figure 2 weeks should be enough time for eveyone to chime in yeah?

Here\'s mine

1) 3/23/06 Crown Room @ Crystal Bay Casino; Crystal Bay, NV
2) 3/24/06 Conneticut Yankee; San Francisco, CA
